Except age 67 resolutions have failed at every single LEC meeting…and that was before hiring 5000 pilots I’ve the last two years.

Any chance of it passing died when almost 2,000 older pilots took the VEOP.

I think he means IF 67 passed congress, the resolution to get a bunch of quids from the company in exchange for solving the 'ICAO training problem' would go to membership ratification and would pass. I think.

67 ain’t happening. Even if the FAA Reauthorization Bill includes it, the individual unions at each airline can shoot it down via several mechanisms. These pro-67 guys are essentially peeing into the wind.

Depends how sweet the deal is obviously. Everything is negotiable.

And would you be opposed to that?

​​​​​wasnt the whole point to alleviate staffing and allow experienced pilots to fly? How does having WB pilots sitting at home work toward that goal?

Yes, because the rest of us will be paying for it for the remainder of our careers. It makes about as much sense as a payday loan.
